Ataman

Ataman’s story began in the early 2000s when Russian gunsmiths, increasingly exposed to Western Olympic competition PCP airguns, dreamed of building airguns that could face the competition head on. Working side by side with Russian Olympic shooters, Ataman honed their manufacturing to craft airguns that represented the leading edge of the industry.

Starting in 2005, Ataman began producing its own precharged pneumatic airguns with precise CNC machining techniques placed front and center. Their mission? To create the world’s most precise sporting and hunting rifles with the support of Russian’s finest gunsmiths.

Today Ataman has achieved astounding success with a a PCP line that’s rugged, reliable and above all else—accurate. Air Venturi is one of the only distributors for Ataman in the US, and is honored to bring the best airguns of the East back to the West. The first time you pull the trigger, you’ll see why Ataman PCPs represent the pinnacle of quality Russian airguns.
